  1. That's most certainly what I would do if I didn't have the means to do it myself. I've heard only good reviews of the Costco branded oil - I buy Mobil-1 from Costco only when on special and claim the rebates online every year. Keep your receipts for the oil and filters, and the service shop, and in addition to this I take a photo of the odometer with service indicator before and after I reset it (the photos data includes the date). I would not extend the interval beyond what it states in your owners manual if you still want to maintain your warranty.
  2. I haven't seen such a notice - do you have a link to it? I have enough Yellow coolant on hand to change my 2017 Sport which is at 65K miles, but wasn't planning on doing it just yet, but seeing an official notice I'll do it right away.
  3. Are you sure that's the interval on a 3.5L with internal water pump?
  4. That's a question for the 3.5L section, because of the concerns with the internal pump, but <16K miles would seem way too early. I prefer to stick with the OEM coolant and changing from Orange to Yellow does not require a flush knowing that the two fluids are compatible.
  5. If I was considering the Livernois tune, the below thread would put me on "Edge". Topic: Livernois Motorsports and Engineering On Probation https://www.ecoboostperformanceforum.com/index.php?topic=10535.0
  6. Thanks onyxbfly but I wont be doing a "flush", only a drain and then fill with the new yellow coolant.
  7. Anyone have details on how to drain and get the most of the old Orange coolant out? Edit: Found it. Cooling System Draining and Vacuum Filling 2.7L.pdf
  8. Yes I do, and used it on my wife's Mustang when I replaced the water pump.
  9. I've got 65K miles on my 2017 Sport and was wondering what interval others are changing their coolant and do you have any tips on draining and filling.
  10. Looks like there's a new oil filter being sold for our engines, the FL2062-A Has anyone tried this new Motorcraft filter? A few negative comments on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Motorcraft-FL-2062-Regular-Oil-Filter/dp/B010QU0SPU/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3IWCU0KHXKA4V&amp;dchild=1&amp;keywords=fl2062a%2Bmotorcraft%2Boil%2Bfilter&amp;qid=1604196409&amp;sprefix=fl2062a%2Caps%2C186&amp;sr=8-1&amp;th=1
  11. Thanks for that. Way better deal here: https://www.levittownfordparts.com/sku/m-12405-35t.html PART NUMBER: M-12405-35T The web site says they're not for the Edge, but are correct for the F-150 without detailing which F-150 engine. Not much details available for those plugs and not sure if they're better than the NGK 95605 Ruthenium HX
  12. Anyone bought spark plugs recently and does anyone have any feedback on the new Motocraft SP-578? I'm looking to buy soon and was also looking at the latest NGK 95605 Ruthenium HX. Also, any seals and gaskets needed?
  13. I don't think there's been enough diagnostics to determine that it is what's implied in the title of the thread, and a load test at Autozone will confirm the true status of the battery. Sounds like an issue with the vehicle. Please consider adding you location and Model / year to your profile signature - https://www.fordedgeforum.com/settings/signature/

  15. @robertlane Robert, any chance we could get this turned back on?
  16. That's a forum glitch that users can only see their own profile detail, which it seems impossible to correct, and when corrected it gets wiped out again with the next software update, so please use the work around and add that detail to your profile signature - https://www.fordedgeforum.com/settings/signature/ Have you installed your new PTU yet, and if so how did it go?
  17. The topic of this thread is the Livernois Tune causing the destruction of an engine, ....not the fastest ST or Sport.
  18. For clarity, I only posted an excerpt from the PDF that @dajo2012 posted , and I think posting a link to a PDF of a different model without any supporting comments is not helpful.
  19. Lets not get personal - the OP may have a legit reason for his choice.
  20. The product manufacturers web site specifies 75W140 GL-5 Gear Oil for the specific model discussed here. https://www.redlineoil.com/find-products-for-my-vehicle
  21. "Also, do owners typically use a new drain plug with each oil change?" - The dealerships don't replace the drain plug and many here have reported that they've done many oil changes without replacing the plug. I have a new one on hand bought on Amazon for around $5, but at 3.5 years and 61K miles with oil change intervals of 5K miles, I haven't seen the need to use my new standby plug. Try a forum search for any additional queries you have.
